so neither root nor the kernel are the reason that Kies behaves that way, we just updated on Kies on the Laptop and connected the unrooted completely stock sgs2 to it and it said the same thing "GT-I9100 not supported for firmware upgrade" even though it is completely stock ... Kies ftw!

Put mine through the wash. It's now filled with washing powder and fabric softner. :(:(:(:(:(

Is there a thread where people have, in various ways, successfully destroyed theirs?
[Desire General] TrTech:
So what? Take it apart completely and clean the parts with pure alcohol.

It will be like new after that.

maybe :cool:
[Desire General] longy92:
Also don't try power it on. Let it completely dry out for like a week. Leave it in a hot press or something. You'd be surprised what can happen. Its worth a shot. Trying to turn it on will most likely fry wet circuits so you're better to leave it...
[Desire General] Invisible Elf:
Or leave it in a jar with dry rice for a while
[Desire General] iLHaNroID:
absolutely agree with that
[Desire General] aaa:
The water, you can get let it dry for about a week.

The washing powder and softener residue..I dunno....

I hope your Desire is still be saved
[Desire General] longy92:
It's worth a shot though, got nothing to lose....
[Desire General] JagSem:
I think it's toast. I tried shaking it to get some of the water out but there is still water swishing around in the screen lol :o

Luckily for me it was insured. I told the girl dealing with my claim what happened, I stopped the washing machine when I heard it clunking. She just laughed.

I've got to send it in to see if it can be repaired. If not then they will replace it. Not guaranteed to be brand new either :(

I had a look at opening it up to let some of the water out but there are void stickers which I was tempted to lift off but I wasn't certain they'd to go back on.

It's got to be one of the worst ways to destroy a Desire lol

Hi,

I tried Darktremor script Apps2SD 2.7.5.3 Beta 04 with CyanogenMod 7 RC1 and nightly build on incredible S unsuccessfully.

I would like use large external partion EXT3 or EXT4 for store Dalvik and apps like on Desire, Wildfire etc...

So the mtp app data started reaching over 26 megs, and with the terrible internal storage on this phone, I decided to clear it. Now, media transfer mode doesn't work on my computer (Win 7 x64). I've tried reinstalling the driver, but it fails (but it worked before the clear).

Has anyone else experienced this? Mass storage mode still works.
[Xperia Play General] dassub:
I should also add, media transfer mode usually would take a few minutes, before the clear, before it actually did show up, when it worked.

yes I'm pretty sure I can as long as i have s-off flyer.

I think the file comes with this name "update.zip" and located somewhere in sd card or ext SD card, maybe in DOWNLOAD folder. Please check your device.

If you can't find the file, I would appreciate it if you could make a full back up of the rom through recovery and upload it to any server. The back up file can be big about 900 MB. You can compress the file with WINRAR and split it to 2-8 files with 100-500 MB each. Then you can upload the smaller files.

Waiting for your response.

[HTC EVO 3D] azbigmike1369:
So what is the best ROM out there so far uses the least amout of ram from out limited 804mb of memory? Also, does using one of the aftermarket kernels like the silverneedle use up some of that memory?
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
So.... What's the benefit of having all this free ram?

I was under the assumption that having stuff that you use frequently sitting in the ram was more beneficial to the performance of the device..

Are we not Phones?

We are EVO

ARE WE NOT PHONES?!

3.Dee.V.O.
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
you said "limited 804mb of memory" WTF, Show me another phone that has 800+ free AFTER the system lmao. I think you should worry less about how much free RAM you have, there's plenty. Read up some more on current phone tech, we are at the top of the mountain right now. Also, does your phone feel slow? Mine doesn't, and I ususally have about 200-300 free...
[HTC EVO 3D] azbigmike1369:
I don't think you understand what I was asking. I never said we get 800mb free. I know we lose 400-550 after boot up. All I was asking, is there a rom out there that uses less of it. If a custom rom doesn't free it up then thats all you have to say. I know our phone is one of the top phones out, I am looking for ways to make it better. Glad my first post amused you.
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
You could try the ROM that says senseless, allegedly uses less RAM. Or if you like sense, get autokiller from the market and set the values really high, but depending how high you go it would likely interfere with multitasking.

BANG! from my shooter...
[HTC EVO 3D] janitorjohnson:
I've tried early every ROM that has released since root and I have seen anywhere from 300-450 in that pull down "task manager" I am currently using Evervolv's first release. It's not the highest number. Usually hovers around 300 unless I kill the apps and it jumps to around 370. I have deleted a lot of apps though. I do like the kernel though. It has made it work well.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MCast_XArc:
Good day,

I have been experiencing a weird "bug" (I guess) with my arc lately, specifically my battery reading.

Sometimes, when I leave it on standby/sleep, the battery reading actually goes up. Like drastically. From 17% to like 35%. Then when I use it again, it goes down drastically as well.

Then when I get to drain it down to 1% (which is odd, since it's supposed to turn off by itself at 5%, right?), it STAYS THERE and I even get to use my arc for at least 30 minutes (I played games and browsed the Net on data conn. the whole time, even!)! Then that's when it finally turns off by itself.

I haven't rooted my phone so this isn't really a ROM thing, right? I've searched around here and I know that battery calibration is some sort of issue when it comes to loading ROMs, mods and stuff but I haven't done that at all. This is stock, non-rooted, 2.3.3-updated Android Xperia arc.

I'm wondering if anyone else has been experiencing this and how I can actually solve this? Preferably without rooting or any of the technical/geeky stuff that will probably brick my phone if I do it incorrectly. Thank you

when making calls i need the keypad to enter numerical choices for voice prompts. however my keypad is not making that 'beep' sound that the prompt listens for. so the call does not progress.

what can i do to use the keypad for those calls that require numerical inputs for voice prompts?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjtj4444:
you don't need any beep sounds in order to control numerical choices, just press the digits and it works.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rab1412000:
i tried it on a different phone number and the keypad does work.

it was only on that phone number which probably relied on keypad sounds to activate the prompts.

the annoying thing is that was the phone number of my cell service provider which i had to reach!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjtj4444:
This doesn't make sense, something else is wrong. The digits you press during the call to a landline (without any beep in your end) causes the correct beep sound to be generated by the mobile network and sent to the other end of the call.

I just tested this myself by calling my home number to be sure I wasn't lying :)

I think you are searching for the wrong solution to your problem.

EDIT: here is the ETSI spec describing how it works if you like specifications ;)

similar problem

Hi I have a very similar problem with my Xperia S LT26i. I dropped it into the bath and it was only in the water for about 30 seconds. Now the touchscreen is not working and the colour has stared to bleed out of the screen. the screen was fine first (looked normal) but now it is very faint and mono-colour which seems to keep changing for dark to white.

I have plugged it into three different computers now and the phone is shown but nothing in it is shown. The USB debugging was not enabled, as previously I didn't know this had to be enabled. Please tell me there is a way around this? the phone itself is still working as I have had a phone call and texts come through. really want to save my data please help!

PC companion doesn't read it either as it says the phone has to have USB debugging enabled. also apparently the Xperia S doesn't have a recovery mode.

Sending SMS over Data

Yes I know this question might have been asked before, at least at some length. But I am taking it a step further ;)

A long while ago I tended to use voipbuster.com and their corresponding mobile app to send texts to my friends in the UK and US for cheap. Lately their service has been none existant and no texts has been delivered and thus forcing me to look for a replacement.

But what good and decent "online" texting services are there?. I dont mind paying a small fee pr text in order to avoid apps or get "assured" delivery rather then getting them for free and they are either full of spam, or they wont make it to the recipient. Naturally it would be perfect if the company suggested has a full Android app.

I did take a look at FishText, but they have no android app so they are not really of use to me, until they develop one. Also tried Haywire from Android Market and well it didn't really work to the level of stability that I want :/

So what other companies are there out there that can fulfill my requirements?. ANd other good ideas or suggestions are naturally welcome as well.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sp1tfire:
Viber works fine for me, both texts and calls, but the other person must have it installed too :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeX_DK:
And thus it does not work for me :/. If it is required that the other person also has the app then its not a "Text message" sadly.

Perhaps I should have been more clear, but I am atually looking for a service that does not require the reciepients to have any special kind of app or software on their phones in order to recieve the messages
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvi0:
Been using an app called jelly sms, and after downloading the app it gives you the option to choose the sms carrier and have been using my cool sms as my sending option and the main advantage of my cool sms is after sending a text, in the app, if you then go on the web u can see the delivery report. It's saved me a tone texting to Africa, so can imagine, you will save more, sending to Europe. You have to topup though to get my cool sms credit, and you can also send texts online without using your phone. I must admit though the same app, is much better on the iPhone, as you get the delivery report in the app, nevertheless its a great and reliable way of sending.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeX_DK:
That might actuallu do the trick. I am however more searching for a single service to sign up with / subscribe to rather then the massive list that Jelly SMS gives me. But if anyone can recommend any of the services listed inside Jelly then I am open ears.

But like i said I tried getting some credit for Voipbuster and it did work for some time but these days my messages are not getting through. Tried the Haywire app which isnt really working out either.

So I am looking for a service like FishText, but since they dont have an android app I cant use them..... And paying around 50 Cents for a text is just not appealing to me :P

Installing cwm means no more ota, since the update relies on the stock recovery.

1 - download a modified boot image into the tablet

2 - install the su and superuser packages.

My scripts do these 2 steps. I wrote a small howto that explains how to modify a boot image (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1193737)

The Mac should have a layer of compatibility with linux (can't tell you more), but i really don't know the mac world.

*Maybe* the live cd will work under virtual machine; there should be some options to enable the usb feature. In Virtual Box there's an option to enable the usb controller and an option to filter what device will be accessible to the guest os; don't know vmware and virtual pc.

I don't know if an Intel based Macintosh is able to boot from a x86 live-cd, you could try.
